My phone is running DL30 based Blackhole 4.01 with the DL09 modem. When I try to plug my phone into a computer, the phone detects the computer, but the computer does not detect the phone.

- The phone starts charging
- The phone says "USB Debugging Connected"
- The computer does nothing
- adb devices lists no devices
- same thing in download mode, the computer doesn't see the phone

I have tried on OS X and booted into Windows XP.

I have no idea how to handle this. The one thing I tried was installing the Stock/rooted DL30 rom instead of Blackhole, but that didn't seem to fix and I went back.

To make matters worse, assuming that everything in ROM Manager is basically safe, I accidentally installed orange clockwork today and I cannot figure out how to get back to a working clockwork. The All ClockworkMod Recoveries option in ROM Manager does nothing - they all say download error.


Wow. If anybody can help with any of this, that would be great. Thanks everyone.

Did you install the proper samsung drivers onto the computer.

Edit: Also did you try to Odin, the title indicates no odin, but your explanation doesnt say so. (Open Odin, remove battery, hold down volume and insert usb cable)

what do you mean "onto my phone?" My Windows system has samsung drivers and OS X were both previously able to connect, use odin, etc. I don't know when it stopped working.

Yeah, odin doesn't work because the computer never detects that the phone is attached.

Sorry, meant computer.

What do you mean odin stopped working, your explanation doesnt say anything about odin as my edit in above post.

What I mean is that I used odin to install DL09. After that, I don't recall every attaching to my computer, but when I tried recently to install EB01, it no longer works. Sometime after flashing DL09, my phone is no longer detected by computer.

Are you sure Odin doesn't work?

Check USB settings on your phone. My rom gives me media player mode and mass storage mode. Don't have my cable with me to test if media player mode stays hidden from the pc.

Odin uses download mode with phone off.. What would this matter?

I was IRL with OP trying to solve this a few days ago. It's not that improper/no drivers are installed, the computer literally does not detect that there is a device connected to that USB port. lsusb on Linux turns up just the controllers and root hubs, and devmgmt.msc on XP does not show anything attached at all, even after a manual hardware scan. adb shows absolutely nothing. My Captivate does show up on all the same scans, regardless of the USB mode (Kies/mass storage/media player/what have you.)

He has tried this on multiple computers, so individual ports/USB controllers/drivers/OS bugaboos have been effectively ruled out.

My thought is that between your last flash, OP, and now, your physical microUSB port on the phone is damaged. If you no can haz insurance, I'd say you're SOL.

FYI: The phone does not say "debugging connected" when plugged into the wall. I think the my USB connector is damaged or something. I may consider seeing if I can get it repaired, or I may just wait until I can get a different phone that's better supported by manufacturer (and therefore by the mod community) :(
